KNOX WALKER. FOR FLOATER, IIUMPEItEY R. BATE, Qf Tipton. BETIKEMEKT OF COL. JKO. P. PKYOE. Col. J. P. Prvok makes his partiBg bow in yes terdajr'a Eagle and Enquirer to its readers, and announces that the Franklin Typographical Union tias trarchased that office. We transfer bis u valedicto-' to our columns this mor niBg. We part from Col. Prvor as from a cwirte OHt aad high-toned member of the prefessioa, who was ever misdfal of his obligatiens as a gentleman in his intercourse with cotempora- ries, and although a wana and decided parti' san, never forgot that he belonged to a high tesed and honorable profession. We extend to him our best wishes for life long happiness, and for success in whatever profession he mar encaee and should he again return to the brotherhood, we will ex tend to him the welcome of a friend and brother. KXOW-KOIHIKG TACTICS. The Eagle and Enquirer has managed to get its sympathies warmly workeU up for Mr. CUR' bin, because he was not nominated by the Democratic Convention at Somerville for Rep resentative to Congress. Now, of all men liv tag, Mr. Ccrri.v will be the least obliged to the Ktrlr far its manufactured sorrow. All that the Eagle says of Mr. Ccrrin is true. He is truly a deserving and an able gentleman, both in a political and a more personal sense. He has been a consistent, toiling and efficient laborer in the Democratic cause, and we should most heartily and cordially have hailed his nomination for a position which we always believed he would have graced and honored. But in this instance the Democratic party's choice fell upon a different individual a man who too is worthy and capable and we feel assured that Mr. Cprris will bow to the will of its party. The Eagle is vastly mistaken if it supposes that Mr. Ccwus is made of the pliable and unprincipled stuff, of which some of the leading men is composeJ, that impels them to forget and betray the doctrines which they taught, as soon as their claims for office or distinction are overlooked. Mr. Currjn-s de- votion to his party and its principles has not been based upon the hope of reward or the ce Bire for promotion. An honorable ambition may have stimulated him to seek the lead in the advancement of the great principles of which he has been, and is now, the fearless, able and gallant champion and advocate. This was and is his natural position, because he is oe never to falter in the darkest hour of our fortunes, bat rather to redouble his exertions for the advancement of his cause. David M, Ccxrin has proven himself to be no sunshine patriot. He has ever fought most gallantly when the storm cloud lowered heaviest and the lightning flashed most fiercely in his face. The Eaglt sadly mistakes its man if it supposes that such a man as this will need or receive its sympathies, because perchance even injustice, or personal preference, or the policy of availi bility, has deprived him of a nomination which very many believed he alone ought to have re ceived. It still more widely mistakes, if it hopes that such a man can ever be tempted to swerve from the path of duty to his party or to his country by the crocodile tears of a party which has all along bitterly opposed and warred against him, and for whose sincerity and principles he has about an equal respect. We are glad, however, that the circumstances of Mr. CuRRiii's present position should have cesstraiaed the Eagle at last to do him justice aBd to acknowledge his eminent meiits. We trust that that journal svill not hereafter repu diate its distinct admissions as to the superior claims, qualifications and merits of Mr. C, whenever the Democracy macall him again to lead forward their column, as we feel as sured they will do. As to Mr. Avery, the nominee of the De mocracy, we assure the Eagle that it mistakes in termine him a reneeade." W. T. Avery never deserted any banner under which he en listed. The old Whig battalion faded away into cellars and garrets before Mr. Avery ever supported the Democracy. That gallant and ancient antagonist of the Democracy was de clared corrupt and dissolved by the order into which its rank and file had taken refuge before Mr. Avery ever dreamed of deserting it. It betrayed, or attempted to betray, him into the bands of a secret midnight society. It was dean gone before he ever lefc the spot where it stood. He then took up arms not against the Whig party but against the corrupt order into which its masses had been inveigled. Mr. Avery joined the Democracy magnanimously and gallantly, when he saw that it alone wan the true refuge for Old-Line Whigs who loved the principles of the Constitution. The truth is, Avery is the Democratic can didate, and Currin is not. This is the secret of Know-Nothing hostility to the one and Know-Nothh g sympathy for the other. We take pleasure in assuring them that Avery ai little fears their hostility as does Currik covet their sorrow and they had all better prepare for a most overwhelming defeat by the tuffra gan of the Tenth District in August next. GEN. FOOTE. H. Stuart Foote, alias Henry Stuart Foote, alia Henry S. Foote, alia H. S. Foote, alias Hangman Foote as he was called by the New York Tribune has renounced Know-Nothlng-ism and again seeks admission into the Demo cratic party. According to the most veracious historians, or rather biographers, of this gentleman, he has in turn belonged to every party that has bad an existence during his natural life, and has betrayed them all. A Clay Whig in his early manhood, he exchanged the services of the great Keatuckian for fealty to Mr. Cal houn. A "Fire Eater" when he first took his seat in the Senate of the United States from the gallant Commonwealth of Mississippi, he again transferred his allegiance to Mr. Clat, and became the most intense Union-saver in the camp of the "glorious Compromise" men. A Know-Nothing latterly, he no- renounces the delights of Sam, and knocks for admission into the doors of the Democratic party. The Vicksburg Sentinel typifies the feelings of the Democracy of the entire Union when it nufiaii mourning robes upon the occasion. The Know-Nothlngs are glad to be rid of him. But tot positively refuse to receive him -3MTi Atlanta ffia.l Odd Fellows Duh V7 V 1 m lis- W. H. Thornbury as an imposter and swindler. The Nashville Banner also joins in the cry, Thornbury as having swindled the ed itor out or a pair or. mitres. LiBERAxrTY. Our readers will remember that Harry Turner died some time ago, leaving slOO,000 to Levi North, and left nothing to his own sisters and brother. They attempted to contest the will, but gave it up. Since then vi North, with a degree of liberality that was never heard of before, has given to each of the sisters a check for $5000, to the brother, Aaron Turner, $10,000, and has given him half the interest in his circus, which Harry Turner formerly beld. He has also given to Gen. San ford, the counsel of the brother and aisteis, $3,000. iY. Y. Register. SASSX-I OX IES XOMATIOK. j The Nasnville Union gives the following ri:h account of the KnowNothing Convention at! Nashville, with a sketch of Haskell's views in reference thereto The Know-Nothiso Convention and their INominee. iue proceeuings or mis remarkable body, which assembled in our city Yesterday, resulted in the election of Rob't .T -1 I 111... Hatton, fcsq., or wiison, as meir canaiaaie for Governor. As strange as tne result mav seem, we are not surprised. Nothing that the Know-Nothing party could do, under existing circumstances, would surprise us. How Mr. Hatton happened to be nominated, is a philo sophic inquiry, suggestive of the condition of his party. Nowithstanding there seemed to be a number of embryo statesmen, from John Smith down, seeking the position, we are con strained to admit that in this single instance the office teas bunting a candidate. If there is irl thrir a county in uic oiaic uiai uau instrucicu iucii i f il fi.l. .1 1 J x i i I i with the purpose of reflecting the views of the

people, we suppose Mr. Hatton is the choice of his party. The fact may have been, and we are inclined to that opinion, that the ques tion wae not so mucn wno saouia oe nomina take it. that i would at all approach to the standard of a candidate for Governor. If their party is sat- isfied, wc are sure the Democracy will ue Mr. Hatton is a resnectable gentleman and a voung lawyer of f iir position at the bar. In 1S52 he was tne bco elector ior tue miu ion- greesional tiistrict. In the Know-Nothing ex- citement or iojj uc (ah iui cue u.ioiomit u Wilson county and was elected. By reference to the House Journal of that session it will be found that he voted for every obnoxious propo sition and reckless expenditure ot money tnac came up. This, we suppose, is a correct indi cation of the State policy that he would re commend if elected Governor. If the Know-Nothing party are pleased witn their nominee, they may tender a reasonable share of their thanks to the Hon. Charles Reftdy, in refusing to recognize Mr. Hatton's claims as an aspirant ior Vvongre ss. xiis re i,nt nrrAniintis efforts to supercede that gentle- man as a candidate for Congress, and his sig- nal defeat is fresh in the minds of our readers. The nomination was by no means Harmoni ous and satisfactory, as the indications in the Convention clearly testified. Gen. Haskell and his friends were particularly displeased. A faint call having been made on Gen. Quarles to address the Convention, that gentleman as cended the stand when a general cry was raised throughout the bouse for Haskell. Amidst the enthusiastic shouts, the disappointed as- pliant ascended the stand. Gen. Quarles stood j aghast, and as Haskell proceeded to auaress thi, mpotincr. feH into the back ground to await tail time. Gen. Haskell said that he had de- delegates to vote for Mr. Hatton, we have not full extracts from other accompanying corres heani of it. As the nominating committee pondence between the Commissioners, were appointed, however as we learned from I The course of the late administration of th pmtleman who moved its anDointment Senor Mallanno was discourteous hi the cx- tote.l his youth and his mannooa in me service ernmeat ior damages, uur vyoramiBsiuner, mr. of his party that he had sacrificed bis time, Morse, had arrived at New Orleans, and is hia money and his profession to their cause now on his way to Washington.

From these services he had been eulogized by the Jamaica, April 23, we learn that two English press and received with ovations and honors by the people; and mat ir empty praise anu com pliments of this character were meet reward for the sacrifices he had made, he bad been fully satisfied. But, said Gen. IL, when substantial honors were to be distributed, others had been their re cipients and not himself. He did notdqubt but the hearts of the maBjes were with him, and that if their voices could have been fairly re flected in the convention, he would have re ceived the nomination. But he had been tricked out of it by intrigue, and that, while he should support the nominee, he was not bound to forget the intriguers. No unkindness of this k.nd could drive him into the ranks of the ene my. He had always opposed them and would oppose them still. The feeling of the conven tion was evidently with Gen. Haskell, and was given vent to in frequent interruptions of ap plause during the delivery of his speech. The unsympathizing portion looked forlorn and gloomy. We could but sympathize with the unhappy condition of thy meeting, and reflect how appropriate would be that old hymn: I wold not live xlvri, I uk not to tUj, Where ejend iftr cloud rle Utk o'er the wf. The few lurid mornlCKs that dawu on Vi bere. Are enoseh ot lUe' wi, nd lull enough lor Its cheer." Gen-Haskell having concluded, Gen. Quarles, Jos. G. Pickett, Esq., and Jacob Holland, Esq., were permitted to occupy the stand. We re gret we have not time to give a synopsis of their remarks. A committee having been appointed to wait on Mr. Halton and introduce him to the Con vention, that gentleman made bis appearance and being introduced by Col. Milton A. Haynes, returned his sincere thanks for the honor con ferred. His remarks were brief, and contained but little to approve or censure. The Hon. John Bell, Hon. Neil S. Brown, and Hon. Charles Ready were present, but said nothing. We have endeavored to give a fair and im partial reflection of this convention. If in any particular we have done the least injustice, we shall be happy to make the necessary correc tion. Several interesting incidents are omitted in the hurry of getting our paper to press. VALEDICTORY. For reasons not necessary to be mentioned here, I have concluded to withdraw from the editorial management of the Eagle and Enqui rer. It had been my ambition to maintain a life-long intercourse, through these columns, with the readers of the oldest journal in Mem phis but Fate has deemed otherwise, and 1 must submit. To tliose readers, generally, I desire to say a single word at parting. If yon are satisfied with the manner in which I have discharged the duties of Chief Editor, during my last term of service, that is, since the 19th of January, 1855, am amply rewarded by that fact and, in return, offer my sincere gratitude for the kind words and unstinted applause with which you have generously and uniformly cheered me on. I part from you with regret, and bid you, one and all, a kindly, heart-warm Adieu To those lion-hearted and unflinching mem bers of the American partv, who have stood by their banner "through glory and through gloom," I would say, never falter in the good fight j'ou have undertaken, stand by your colors to the last. Never think of giving up the ship. The day of your triumph must come, sooner or later. No candid man, who has closely watched the current of political events in this country, during the past two or three years, can deny that a vast majority of the American people are at heart in favor of the leading principles of our party. Wherever the battle has been fought exclusively on those, is sues, victory has almost invariably crowned our standards. A majority of the freemen of this country, from Maine to California, I verily believe, have been, at one time or another, "sworn in" members of American Councils taking the obligation to sustain our principles, irilh. a distinct understanding beforehand trmi these principles were. Warped by party, and other ouUide and often mere clap-trap In fluences, from the support of a great and glo rious cause, this overwhelming majority may be won back. It depends upon you, Ameri cans upon your energy, your good manage ment, your perfect harmony, yocr patriotic de votion to principle to do it. May you suc ceed, and may your success be unbounded. The Franklin Typographical Union having purchased the Eagle and Enquirer office, I have to say to those memberB of the Union who sub scribed their stock at my solicitation that that corporation is now under the direction of three gentlemen who are well qualified to control its affairs prosperously and profitably. That they may make the paper more acceptable to the public and to the partr than it has ever been, is my most earnest wish. My busines associate and valued friend, Dr. Geo. C. Gray, wilt remain in the office tempo rarily, for the purpose f winding up the affairs of the old concern. My aupciation with him has been of the most pleasant afld agreeable character; and the American party should know that he has sacrificed more of time tad money, in supporting the good cause In which we are all enlisted, than probably any other man in this end of the State. He deserves their lasting gratitude. I cannot close this article without referring, in britf but just terms, to one who, during the short period be has been connected with this journal, has won a reputation as a writer hard ly second to that of any one in Tennessee. I allude to my gifted editorial associate, Frank Y. Rockett, Esq.,4o whom the readers of the pi.&r, for the past sixteen months, have been indcbWor much of the original matter which has pps;xajn these columns. He Is a gen tleman and a fiv? of the truest type, and will yet make uu ari: pon me country." I am happy to state that lie ias pVn engaged by the Typographical Union, and wiH fsatlnue his labors as one of the editors. Finally, to the gentlemen of the press of(sn? fcybe name of Joseph Patterson, jr., Memphis, I rstnrn my sincere acknowlede-1 raents for the coarUsy which has marked their bearing towards me ever since I joined their gallant and accomplished brotherhood. The best wish I can make them at parting is, that they may clteays preserve the hizh-lontd spirit of professional courtesy and fair-dealing, now so happily prevailing among litem for, in this wav onlv. can they truly carry out their aim of accomplishing the greatest good for the great est number. J. P. PBYOR. THE SEWS, the JfSf Tork Herald, April so 1 no steamers JUno and Quaktr C.lyar- Aspinwall ami Havana, with news from Cali fornia, Oregon, Central America, New Gran ada, the west coast of Mexico, the Sandwich Islands, the South Pacific, Cuba, and the Bri tish West India Islands. Our files from New Granada re dated at Panama and AsDinwall on the 19th of April Hon. I. E. Morse, United States E..yoy to New Granada, visited the sloop of war Cyene, at Aspinwall, on the 11th Inst., and was received with a salute of thirteen guns. We publish elsewhere the proposed treaty sent out to Bo gota by Mr. Morse, and whicli has ben so de cidedly rejected by the government of New Granada, as to cause a virtual rupture of our ilinlnm atic relations with that republic, and 1 thp rone entration of our naval forces at Pan- ama and Aspinwall to protect the rights of our citizens on the Isthmus transit, together with treme. It will be seen that tne uommtssiouera on our side, after the rejection of the proposed treaty, made the deman 1 of $400,0C0 indemnity to the sufferers by the Panama riot as an ulti matum. This was, not only refused by New Granada, but a reply was given that she should claim $150,000 for damages occasioned by our citizens in creating that in creating that affair. The treaty shows that the Herald has been correct in all its statements in this New Granada affair. Without assigning any reason, the treaty sets out with a complete cutting jin of the present political organization of the Isthmus, and re arranges it to suit the purposes of the Panama Railroad. This operation fills the first four ar ticles of the treaty. The fifth article demands a blank sum for the claims of our citizens who suffered at Panama. The sixth returns to the Panama Railroad interest, and demands the cession of the islands in the bay of Panama in full sovereigntj' to the United States. The AvAnth artirle Rtinu!atR the rjavment bv the Government of the United States of a blank sum to New Granada in consideration of the above grants and cessions. The eighth is the usual ratification article. Our naval forces will concentrate at the Isthmus ports, with in structions to see that no interruption is given to our mails and passengers. Should any such be anticipated it is not at all improbable that a force of marines and sailors will be landed on each side, and the entire road taken possession of and protected by them. Such a course will show to New Granada that trifling will not be permitted, and the decision of our government and its energy in mis matter, are wormy or an praise. A letter from Mr. Perry, British Consul at Panama, published in another column, shows mat senor romDe miBquorea uis icuer io we Government of New Granada, and that he re cognizes fully the responsibility of that Gov- war vessels were ordered from Port Royal to Carthacena. New Granada, in order to join the British squadron of blockade on that coast. The news from Central America is exceed-! ingly interesting. Col. Lockridge's party of filibusters has been completely dispersed. The Costa Ricans occupy Punta Arenas, and have no doubt erected fortifications to protect the river. The intelligence from Riyas, Walker's headquarters, is down to the 1st inst., at which time the allied forces, if we are'to credit the Costa Rican accounts, had hemmed in on every side their opponents, who were reduced to great distress for want of provisions. The Costa Ricans also bad possession of San Juan del Sur, and the early capitulation or destruction of the fillibueter force seemed inevitable.

I1IP0ETAKT FE0H BOGOTA. 1 I TDK OFFICIAL CORKESPOXDEXCE THE FOUtt POINTS DEMANDED BT TIIE UNITED STATES NRW GRANADA REFUSES, AND DB&AND3 $150, 000 INEEitNITT FOR THE 1WU APRIL. We have dates from Bogota to March 17. The Gaceta Official and the Tiempo publish the correspondence between Messrs. Bowlin and Morse and Sors. Pombo and Gonzalez. It appears that the six points said by the Tiempo to have been demanded by the United States Government are not correct, and the fol lowing is the actual demand First. To constitute the cities of Panama and Aspinwall into two independent munici palities, independent and neutral, with the power of self-government, extending over a territory of ten miles wide on each Bide of -the railroad. Perfect freedom of the transit route. Neutrality and liberty guarantied. The sov ereignty not changed. Other nations to be in vited to join in the guaranty. Second: To cede to the United Status, in full sovereignty, the two small groups of islands In the Bay of Panama for a naval station, and all the rights and privileges reserved in the rail road contract, for an ample consideration. Third: To pay for the damages occasioned by the outbreak on the 15th of April. Fourth The sum to be paid by the United States. All these New-Granada absolutely and de cidedly rejects, and, in her return, claims the sum of $150,000 from the United States for damages done to Panama and New Granadian citizens by Americans on the 15th of April that the United States owes reparation to New Granada for the rude protest of Col. Ward, dated April 21, and far the disrespectful let ters of Commodore Mervine and Captain Bai ley. In the House of Representatives, it has been proposed to raise a loan ef $500,000 in case New Granada was attempted to be invaded by the United States. The Hon. J. Alorse arrived by the British steamer frm Carthagena at Aspinwall. PROPOSITIONS Handed by Urtjrs. More and Bowlin, tie Plenipotentia ries ot tbe Gorernment ot the United Statu, to tne Secretary lor Fereign Again, on the 4th ot February, 1557. Propoiilion 1st. "To erect the cities of Panama and Aspinwall (Colon) into two mu nicipalities independent and neutral to govern themselves, with a territory ten miles wide on each side of the railroad. The perfect freedom of the transit route. Neutrality and freedom guarantied, sovereignty unchanged. Other na tions to be invited to the guaranties." ARGUMENT. By this proposition New Granada retains the sovereignty-over the territory, only consenting to the, creation of municipalities with limited attributes of sovereignty similar to states in a federal compact. By it, she releases herself from her obliga tion to protect the railroad route, which can only be done at considerable expense. She secures her owe free use at aU times over the route as perfect as she now enjoys it. This arrangement is similar to the one be- tween Great Britain and the United States in relation to the free municipalities of Greytown on the Nicaragua route and the late arrange ment of the iiay islands. By this arrangement, riew uranada losts nothing, not even fancied honor, while she gains an exemption from an onerous duty of protecting tbe route exemption from all lia bility for damages for invasions of the right of transit and secures permanent aid in defense of the integrity 0? that part of' her territory from invasion at all times. TAe Secoud Proposition. "To transfer to the States tbe two little clusters of islands in the Bay of Panama in full sovereignty' for a naval station, and all reserved rights and priv ileges in the Panama railroad charter, for an ample consideration." ine object ot my position is, nrst: 10 es tablish a navy yard in the bay of Panama. This would be nearly of as much benefit to New Granada as to the United States it would greatly enhance the security of the Isthmus route from invasion or outbreak, and tend to relieve New Granada from the necessity 01 1 defending it, as it would keep resources always j at hand. It would open a splendid market to the productions of the lethmus, and en- 1 courage trade and commerce in Granadian I territory. Beside, tbe United States would get nothing by the purchase but tbe sovereignty, as tbe roperty is now held by individuals, and chief y by citizens of the United States, euch an es tablishment, drawing around it as a common centre tbe commerce of tbe Pacific, could, it is believed, have no other tendency than to en hance the wealth and glory of New Granada. The transfer of the railroad privileges, it is believed, carries with it but little of profit. For while it yields, under tbe contract some S40,000 or $50,000 annually, yet tbe corres ponding obligation to protect it, would, if prop erly executed, cost nearly as much, if not quite as much as the income, and the Obligations are mutual. The revenue cannot be exacted with out the protection, afforded. By this transfer New Granada releases herself forever from this obligation, while she, would realize in tbe consideration the full value of her income, and even much more. Proposition Third. "To pay the damages occasioned by the Panama riot." This question needs no discussion. The liability of New Granada is a fixed fact, she was not only bound to pro ect the route, which would have fixed her liability, but her citizens, headed by officials, perpetrated the outrage which djubly fixes liability unor her. While ;f W i ;a fw hrn,fl in i refused'to lend the aid of her legal process to bring up witnesses in aid of such investigation, and can now raise; no question as to the result. The evidence, though not as complete as it iight nave.betrr, could we have had process to bring up unwilling witnesses, is vet ample to show, the destruction of life and robbery- of property to the amount claimed.- At all events, the Government of the United States have spared ho pains to ascertain the facts, and have settled it, and that is no longer an open question and New Granada complain, as the authorities of Panama, instead of aiding to solict the facts, threw every possible obstacle in the way, and what we have been able to-ob-taln'against their resistance must be the basis of the decision. Preposition Fourth. ''The aum to be paid by the United States'." The Bum,is liberal, very far above the value real or imaginary of the property conferred, for the sake of a settlement to secure peace and harmony. The United States are willing to pay many times the real value of the things obtained. translation. Bogota, February 23, 1857. To lht lfan. Meim. Isaac E Mouse and James B .Bowlis, Plenipotentiaries of the United States of Amenta, ye Gkktlemen: The undersigned, Plenipo terttiaries of New Granada, for discussing with the Hon. Plenipotentiaries of the United States, of the international questions connected witn the Isthmus of Panama, have the honor to answer the note, dated the 13th inst., which was received at the office for Foreign Aflairs, in tbe afternoon of the. 15th, and which they were pleased to address to them with reference to the "Memorandum" pressnted by the under signed in the Conference held on the 12ih inst., declaring Inadmissible as a basis of discussion for the settlement of the questions, the four propositions set forth in a "Project of Conven tion' exhibited on the 4th inst., by the Honor able Messrs. Morse and iiowlin, to the becre tary for Foreign Affairs. Each of them had at the foot explanatory commentaries, in which it was endeavored to show that the two first were convenient and even advantageous to New Granada. With respect to the third, to prove the responsibility of the Kepublic,.and to demonstrate witn re gard to the events of tbe 15th April, that we should abide by the- proofs obtained by the agents of the United States Government, upon tbe supposition that oa our part not only bad we failed to prosecute rny inquiry, but that we had thrown obstacles In the way of the invasr tigaliont carried on by said agents. But the true explanations of the propositions was to be found in the project of a Convention, like wise presented; and, moreover, the Plenipo tentiaiies made, during the conference they held with the Secretary for Foreien Affaiis. whatever additional observations they thought proper, without mentioning, however, or oiler ing any other document. All this waB taken into the serious consid eration of the Executive Government, so that the answer given eight days afterward by the undcrsijneJ, both being members of the Ad ministration, In the Conference of the 12th, with tbe Memorandum" of the same date, cannot in justice be called pre.cjpitate, nor can it be said to have been given without at least bearing he plenipotentiaries of the United f he anJereteoed, acting conformably t,p thejr instructions, declared he proposiljons made to be inadmissible j but ie1 not jejoje the door on all further negotiation. They declared that the propositions signified the cession of the entire territory of the State of Panama, inasmuch as, that under a show of tbe municipal administration of the strip of land comprising the railway from one extreme to the other, and with most ample privileges filac'ed ai,flT2ntlv under certain local corpora tions, the greater part of thefpjyouldbe formed of individuals foreign to the country,' and would, in fact, according to the project of con vention, be under the dependency or the United States Consuls, and under the tutelage of the land and sea forces of that Republic j for the Islands In the Bay of Panama' being occupied by the United States, some of which art within gun-suot orjme city, mat aepenueucy anu tute lage would be effective and constant and like wise, because the territory of tbe State of Panama being inaccessible at present, and for years -to come, to tbe rest of New Granada, except by sea, me roreign power mat anouid gain a footing thereon would, in fact, be the possessor and ruling power of the same. The cession would be gratuitous and dishon orable. Pecuniary compensation is tendered, or purchase money, amount as yet undeter mined, in exchange for territorial seigniorage, and for rights and reserves on tbe railroad. Whatever may tbe sum promised, and from which deduction would be made for the 15th of April, the remainder could never represent the value assignable to the territory of tbe whole State of Panama, and, above all, to the mar velous bridge thrown by natnre between tbe two oceans; nor with millions could New Gra nada redeem herself from the infamy and con sequent ruin to which she would condemn her self by selling for money, peopled territories, making foreigners, against their will, of many thousands of her citizens, and opening the door to dominion and conquest by a foreign power. The cession would be unconstitutional. The Constitution of the Republic designated its territory as independept of all foreign domin ion, declared that citizenship could neither be forfeited nor suspended, except as a penalty, according tothejlaws; and guarant ed to all citizens direct suffrage in elections, which .the firoject of Convention would pretend to limit n Panama and Colon to certain proprietors of landed and other property. The' undersigned declared that the plan pro posed by the Plenipotentiaries for permanently securing liberty of transit from sea to sea, by the Isthmus of Panama, does not satisfy its legitimate object, an tney proved it. ine Government of tbe United States wishes to be come owner of the inter-oceanic ways j they only offer tbe transit to such nations as may agree to the neutrality of tbe territorial strip of land, acknowledging its municipal Govern ments, and not upon the footing of perfect l fn.. i. a v i euuaiuy. aue uuternuieui 01 new uranaaa proposes a negotiation, that giving to the citi zens 01 the united atateea and to meir pro perty the effective protection they desire, and V. ..fill K I Tl h.. n 7 n vtnvt. nr.nlln. hue DaiK.j nu11.11 tne, aaj .3 wuT liauwui with no other reason but the suspicion conse quent on the faults committed by themselves, should extend to all nations the same benehts and tbe same advantages, leaving sacred the principle of territorial sovereignty; and here it may be added, insuring to the btateot Pana ma for its own proper administration, the reve nue now so much wanted, owing to the extreme liberality of the franchises granted. This proposal has not been properly appreciated; it implies, and so it must be understood, the par ticipation of other Powers in the negotiation. Ihey also declared that various clauses of the "Project of Convention" were in opposl tion to the contract made with the Panama Railroad Company. That, for instance, which authorizes the Consuls of the United States, in certain cases, to es'ablish and collect taxes upon the Railroad and upon the passengers and property passing by the same; also that clause which would attribute to the United States full and exclusive power, either by charter or in any other manner, to provide for the construc tion of any other railroad within the territorial district of the existing one. And thej- declared Gnally, in the name of their Government, that they consider New Granada not responsible for the events at Pan ama of the loth or April and their lamentable conseqnences, and cannot consent that the Government of the United States should decide the question, the which comprehends a formal refusal or me idemnity demanded, ine mo tives of refusal are to be found expressed in a few words in the ."Memorandum" itself, and shall here be extended. This is. not a pecuni ary question but a question of principle. The capital point is, the antecedents of the events and theirjmmediate origin. Tbe inhab itants of Panama were predisposed against the California emigration, on account of its generally brutal behavior, and still more pre disposed against the new species of adventu rers whose breeding place, whose recruiting station, .whose arsenal of resonrces, whoae starting point and whose point d'appui are the United States, and who have improved and brought anew upon the scene the ancient filli busterism. This unfavorable predisposition existed principally among the masses of the poorer classes, who were frequently the victims of the outrages committed by the passing emi grants, and among a great number of destitute I strangers, brought from tbe West Indies and other places as laborers on the railroad, and i afterwards turned adrift by the Company to I starve. Such predisposition was the natural effect of experience, and while it existed, no thing was more easy or inevitable than an explosion of popular rage and vengeance when ever any new excess should provoke it. This is what, first tbe United States Consul at Pan ama, then the Minister, Mr. Bowlin, and the Commissioner, Mr. Corwine, and now tbe Hon. Plenipotentiaries, have Btyled premeditation or previous concert. New Granada is not to blame that the elements of a sudden and fierce con flagration should have been thus accumulated. Here follows a narrative of the affair, after which tbe Commissioners proceed as fol lows To recognize, on tbe part of New Granada, responsibility toward the United States for the occurrences of tbe 15th April, 1856, and con sequently tbe obligation to indemnify the for the damages and losses, would be the height of folly on the part of tbe Government of this country; ana uucu less aiier tne iact mat tne Ijlood ot Granadian citizens had been spilt, owing to the manifest aggression of North American citizens; much less when, in conse quence of those events, this Republic has been so atrociously calumniated in the face of all nations, -and has suffered so much in its moral and material interests much less, she being the one that has 'a right to exact reparation for tue uisrespecttui proceedings oi uonsul Ward, of Capt. Bailey and Commodore Mervine, of ficial agents of the United States Government, and compensation in favor of tbe national victims, in favor of the city of Panama, and In favor of the Inoffensive foreigners who in ar.y way suffered in that catastrophe. Our brethren, the Chilians and Mexicans, are mined form from tneir possessions by sheer force, they are sacked, hanged; hunted down like wild beasts in California, without safeguard or reparation. American citizens who have seized the reins of power, after tbe manner of conquerors, shoot, confiscate prop erty, ana level even to tneir foundations tne cities of Nicaragua and should New Granada, the classic lajid of patriotism, villify itself by consenting to pay lor tne outrages perpetrated upon iti Nor is it possible that this can be the inten tion of the Government at Washington. Five or six days after the deplorable events of Pa nama, there was formed there, by several hot annexationists or speculators, a plan for tergi' versatitig the facts fo the prejudice of New Granada and this plan has been carried into execution, and having met with voluntary or. deceived auxiliaries, nas nad tne euect of con cealing the truth from the President of the United States. The undersigned Plenipoten tiaries are bound to believe that, in tbe present grave question, that Government Is not anima ted.by any spirit of ill-will toward this Repub lic; tney are bound to suppose mat, in becom ing better informed with regard to those events and with regard to the specific causes of what it calls insecurity of tbe transit across the Isthmus of Panama, it would have acted in truly friendly manner- with the Granadian Le cation near it, or with the Executive Govern mint by means of its own in Bogota, in prder to avoid freen collisions between tne passen gers by the railway and the natives, and to re move all motive of fear and difficulty. One pf the means, considering the immense flow of passengers and treasure four times a month, would be to agree in the permanence of some vessel of war of the United States in the bay of Panama, uith instructions to assist the Governor of the State whenever he n.ight re. quest it, for the protection of the transit; anotner, not to piace oostacies in tne way of collecting certain moderate taxes upon the transit which are necessary for tbe support of tue puDiic aaminisirauon ana lastly, anotner, to accept ana support tne idea or a negatia tion between tbe two Governments and those of England apd Franca, which might lead to a complete guarantee, and without nteludice to the territorial sovereignty, of the freedom and safe frequenting- of the intereceanle route, upon the basis of perfect equality for all na tions The letter concludes.with some observations on tbe amount of damage done by the riot, wnicn is sain to nave been greatly exaggerated by the American Cpmmissibperg. The corres pondepce'ends with a demand by the American Cqtnmlssoner8 far $00,000 damages, to which the New Granadian Commissioner retorts bjr demanding in bis turn 5f5Q,Of0. Their last letter conciuaes as iomowb j It is exceedingly painful that ow'ng tp sub stantial mtstaKes, ana in consequence or unjust prejudice a disturbance of 30 crave a nature should have risen in the old and constant friendly relations between two republics of the New AVorld, very disproportionate, it is true, iu actual power, but caned by tneir geozrapni- cal position, by tbe nature of their political in atltntiona. and bv the nro;ress of nbllo'soDhf- cal and humane ideas, to march toward a sml- linz future. The Government of New Granada expects qeveriaeless, from the visdotn and high social position of the President 6f the United States, that upon a new and calm ex amination of the facts, he will give to his co- j temporariet,and to posterity the noble example of rectifying bis decisions in the deplorable af fair forming tbe subject of this note, with the regard due to reason and the principles of hon esty, which are and have been at all times the best basis of good policy.

EOTTTHEKK PACIFIC SAILBOAT) COMPANY, This Company, as the public is aware, has been rt-omnlitd, nd Its oflcehas'been changed from XewTork to Jfew Orleans, according tj the resolutions of the Board of Directors, a copy of which Is herewith appended. A Secretary, Mr. George V. Law'risos, and three additional Southern Directors, to-wlt J. J. Persons, of the firm of J. J. Persons Jt Co., and Satcdebs, of the firm of Ward, Saunders 2t Hunt, and A. M.

Of the twelve millions of stock authorized to be issued by the above resolutions, and on which only five deBars per share la required to be paid, upwards of seven mil. lions, or seventy thousand shares, have been taken at New Orleans. Of the bslance of said stock, one ml lion. or ten thousand shares, will be offered for sale tn Mem phis. Books for Iti subscription will be opened on this day, Friday, the 1st ot May, at the Bank of I. B. IRT- land, and wUl continue open for a tew days only. The road is rapidly progressing. Twenty miles only Is required to be finished by-ths ISth of February. Of these, ten talks are now graded and ctoss-lied, and about f jur more-sraded and ready for the enss-ties and rails. Tweuty-ilve hnudr d tons ot rails have been purchased and paid for; of which upwards of twenty four hundred tuns have been shipped to tbe point of destination at which they are needed. Contracts hive twen made, andsnflccnt force is now at wot npoa tbe road to complete, not only the twenty miles above required, but at least twenty-five miles by the time above designated. The charter, and all the do nations of Iants, privileges ans. rlahts given by it, are thus, beyond doubt, secured to the Company. When 1 accepted tbe Presidency of this Company. I stittd that I thi n, and yet believe, that this road will prove a great national beoelt that witu Judicious man agement it can soon be made; that the charter privileges ana grants are of, a cnaracter to realize to the stock. holders an immense profit that, securing this charter and bnUdinc; at once even fifty milts of the road, will ef fectually and forever recure thls route as the connecting link between the Pa&ac and Atuntic oceans. But In relation to all these mstters.a candid pnbllcmust ludze tor Itself, from the f ollotring statement at facts The Legl.lature of Texas passed an act incorporating a ralIroal companr under the name of "Texas Wes'ern Railroad Company," which, by a subsequent art, was changed to that of ihev Southern Faciac Railroad Cempr nj This is the charter under wnlch this Company has been orzxn zed. By tbe terms of tbe charter th- compa ny is autnorizeu to construct a rauroaa from somesnita ble point on the Eastern Boundary line ot Texas, and run nlng such course as they might determine to 1 Paro, on the Itio Grande, giving to the corporation hit the neces sary powers to carry mis enecl the object of the grant. Tbe charter gives the right to take and hold so much ot the public land through which the road might pass, not excteaing two nunai ta feet wiae, for tne track or the road, and such, additional width as mlgtt be necessary for de pots, etc It abo gives to the .company eight sections of land for every mUe of rajiaay actually completed by It and ready for use. The dep'bt three miles on. each side of the road Is reserved for the use of the Company and the State, each Deing ecuueu to alternate ections, By an act of the Leg islature, pissed In 1SS4, the Company became entitled to eight sections more, to be located on any of tbe public Unas of tne stale, making in all sixteen sections of land t the mile, or eight millions and seventeen thousand acres ot una for the wnoie line of road.
